What's New

Cub Scouts return to St. Andrew's!
Beginning Sept. 7, 6:30 to 7:30 PM
Scouting is returning to St. Andrew's! Pack 242 of Newport News, in existence since 1942, has decided to make St Andrews their new home church (formerly met at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel). Cub Scouts, part of Scouting America (previously Boy Scouts of America) has about 40 active cubs, both boys and girls. James Maxwell & Ginny Chilton and their children have been active in this pack for four years and James is the current Cub Master. The Pack will be meeting on Monday evenings from 6:30 to 7:30 starting September 8th. If you know a boy or girl in kindergarten through 5th grade who might be interested in joining, click here. 

Back-to-School Blessing on Sept. 7
On Sunday, Sept. 7, during 10:30 service there will be a Back-to-School Blessing. The children will be invited up for a blessing to send them into the new school year with the assurance that God and their faith community are with them all the way! Teachers and professors will receive a back-to-school blessing too!

Choir is calling!
Are you looking for a way to deepen your spiritual life? Find a community? Or maybe you're intrigued by the idea of taking on the challenge and reward of working on a piece of music to share with your church family? If any of these speak to you, the adult choir is calling your name. Starting in September we rehearse on Wednesday evenings and share an anthem each Sunday at the 10:30 worship service. Contact the parish office for more info. 

Ferguson Avenue playground spruce-up on Oct. 4
Our Ferguson Avenue playground is enjoyed by families here at St. Andrew’s and throughout Hilton Village and we love that! Now the playground  needs some sprucing up and we're going to do that on Saturday, Oct. 4, 10 AM to noon. We’ll do things like: repairing and painting the climbing gym; making minor repairs to the fence; weeding, pressure washing. As the saying goes, many hands make for light work and we’ve invited Hilton families who use the playground to join us in this effort. If you are able to help on Oct. 4, please contact the church office. We are always heartened when families enjoy the playground with their children. Help us keep it a fun and safe place for everyone!
